ABSTRACT
Presented in the paper are the results of experimental research of liquefaction characteristics of silt by varying the content of clay particles or by varying the dry density. The laboratory tests were run on remolded and undisturbed silt specimens by using cyclic dynamic triaxial device. The results show that the lowest dynamic shear strength is at 9% of content of clay particle,and the dynamic shear strength increases with the dry density of the silt. It lays the foundation of the study on silt liquefied mechanism in the future.
